About linda

Hi. My name is Linda Auerbach and I own this beach duplex with Shari and Marie. Living on Cape Cod we always enjoyed watching the cottages by the beach fill with summer vacationers. What fun they seem to have! In 2009 our beach duplex became available. It was an opportunity to own our own place by the beach! Everyone should have a chance to live by the beach. Not only do we enjoy the duplex ourselves, but we also invite you to do the same!!

linda purchased this cottage in 2009

Why linda chose Centerville

Craigville Beach has an open view of Nantucket Sound, Hyannisport, and Osterville. You can take long walks on the beach. If you walk long enough you can walk through the small sand dunes to the fresh water river. At the duplex you can eat in, grill out, or go to the local restaurants for casual and fine dining. It's easy to get around, but you are going to want to stay where you are.

What makes this cottage unique

The fact that you can get up and walk out your door to the beach is a real treat. An outdoor shower to enjoy, a great space to eat and to lounge outdoors while enjoying the view. It doesn't get much better than that.

Wonderful place. First time to Cape Cod. We came in November, off season, so the place was empty and many shops/restaurants were closed but we LOVED it! No traffic, beach to ourselves (with a heavy coat of course!) The cottage is perfectly situated - Directly across the street from the beach so you don't have far to walk or have to pay for parking. On a very busy street but there are 2 crosswalks. VERY clean, everything you need including all the paper products - although it said you were supposed to supply your own. LOVED that they left shampoo from past renters so that we did not have to buy more. LOVED that they supplied sheets, even though you were supposed to bring your own. LOVED that they responded in 5 minutes when we alerted them that the Wi-Fi was out. LOVED the gas fireplace that made the place super cozy. Great having washer/dryer in the cottage too. There was even laundry soap, although we brought some just in case. Wonderful central location to explore entire Cape. Only negative was a very uncomfortable master bed HOWEVER - owner thanked us for letting them know and said they would be looking into it. They left sheets for the 2 single beds so we were able so sleep just fine - just not together. Would recommend this place and would stay here again.

Will Be Back!

My family and I stayed on the Grassy Knoll side of this cottage last month, and it was FANTASTIC! My children (ages 3 and 6) had plenty of room to run around the private yard, while blowing bubbles or playing catch. Additionally, you can't get a better location- literally, you are across the street from the beach! The cottage provided a plastic wagon, which was perfect- sitting the kids, umbrellas, and chairs in it as we walked to the beach. It truly was an easy, breezy good time. Also, there is a great park in town that the kids LOVED. We spent one day at the Boston Aquarium (1.5 hour away) and another day at the Cape Cod Inflatable Park (20 minutes away). There was so much for us to do with the kids. It was our first family vacation and it couldn't have been better. We will be back; hopefully in 2016:)!!

Great Place!

This was my first time staying at this cottage and had a great time! The house is clean and maintained well, and the description of the listing is accurate. The location is perfect, directly across the street from the beach, and a quick drive to Hyannis to shop or grab dinner. Linda is great to work with. I hope to be back next summer!

Super Place to Stay at the Cape

We have been visiting the Cape for 20 years and have rarely stayed the same place twice. However, my husband and I enjoyed this cottage so much last year that we have booked it again this year. The cottage is charming. It is clean and well maintained. The bedrooms are good sized and comfortable. If you want to cook at home, the kitchen is well appointed. The location is perfect. Shops and a variety of good restaurants are just a short drive away. The beach is very close...just a very short walk across a roadway and you're there! I originally found this delightful cottage online, and the promotional information describing the cottage and location was very accurate. The owners are wonderful to work with and were very eager to answer any questions we had. We took advantage of all of their knowledge about the surrounding area and had a wonderful time at the Cape.

My home on the Cape

Ever since I found this gem of a cottage in 2010, I keep coming back for my week at the Cape. Clean, beautifully maintained, wonderfully located (cross the street to the beach, 5 minutes by car to Hyannis). The owners are very friendly and attentive. Always a lovely experience.

Craigville Beach is near the heart of Centerville and 5 minutes by car to Hyannis. The beach is long with white sand and the awater is for swimming, kayaking, and boating looking out over Nantucket Sound. Hyannisport home to the Kennedy compound is minutes away. In Centerville there is the famous Four Seas Ice Cream parlor, Centerville Historical Museum, Centerville Library, and a children's park. The local restaurant, Craigville Beach Pizza and Mexican Food, is within walking distance. Family and fine dining are minutes away in Hyannis. There are movie theaters in Hyannis and great shopping. In the summer there is whale watching and great theatre.
